Claire joined host of the Cambridge Centre for Science and Policy’s Science and Policy Podcast, Dr Rob Doubleday, along with fellow guest Jon Agar (Professor of Science and Technology Studies, UCL), to discuss which scientific voices are heard in government, and whether one voice or many shapes information that is informing decision making. They explore what structures and institutions have evolved over recent decades to try and make that process more open, more diverse and more robust. Listen to their discussion here.
Sarah and Claire joined FuturePod host Peter Hayward for an episode of this long-running and insightful podcast series. We talk about storylistening, with a particular focus on its relevance to futures practitioners and academics, and others concerned with anticipation. The episode covers how we met and started working together (and each of our interests in Futures), the main arguments of the book (including the framework of the four-fold functions of stories), with a particular focus on communicating the insights of Chapter 4 – Anticipation, including the historical and present relationship between Futures Studies and science fiction. The episode webpage contains a full transcript which can be searched for keywords, and a list of the works we mention along the way in the conversation.
Sarah contributed to an episode of the first series of the University of Cambridge’s podcast – Mind Over Chatter – to explore how stories relate to climate change. She was in conversation with Richard Staley (Reader in the History and Philosophy of Science department and co-lead on the Making Climate History project) and Lord Martin Rees (cosmologist, astrophysicist, and Astronomer Royal).
The episode was produced by Nick Saffell, James Dolan, and Naomi Clements-Brod.
